I've been wanting to cut the cord with Time Warner for a long time.
i've been happily streaming football games for dh not that i could get cable anyhow ;)

i believe sling tv is still offering a free roku stick with one month of prepaid subscription ;) how are those boxes different, steamer?

I'm fairly certain the roku stick is similar to an android box, just a little less powerful?
The fancier Android box's play games they have web browsers & more.

Roku sticks are actually decent, but they dont compare with an Android box, Android being much more versatile. If nothing else you can load Kodi on an Android, an Android will do anything a Roku will and lots more.

That being said, if you dont have a little bit of geek in you, go the Roku route, it is a very easy to use interface. In order to get all the goody out of Android you have to go through a bit more of a learning curve.

He's showing his true colors and how classless he really is.
More than that it is almost like he wants to start a war in the Middle East and raise tensions with Russia to reignite the Cold War or god forbid a shooting war to keep Trump so occupied with more important matters that he can't strike down his Executive Actions and Obama Care so he can protect his legacy and torpedo the Trump stock market rally.

This whole Russia hacking thing is because Podesta fell for a freaking email phishing scam Google Alert to change his password, clicked on a link in the email & gave the hackers his username & password! The FBI was offering to examine DNC computers for malware & hacks & implements security measures beginning in October 2015 & they refused because they thought it was a ploy to get evidence on Hillary investigation. Incompetent idiots!

Edit: It appears Putin will not react to Obama's expulsion of diplomats in kind, but instead will wait for the Trump administration to take office before deciding on a course of action. Very surprising. Russia will not expel anyone in response to U.S. sanctions, Putin says

He even invited the children of U.S. diplomats to a New Years Eve party in the Kremlin.
